Xbox 360 - Recording Your Own Speech In-Game?


Ice Cubez

Question

Hi,

 

I have just purchased my roxio game capture device and so far im loving it.

 

I am using it to capture gameplay from my XBOX 360.

 

Now ...

 

This is the situation. I play using a turtle beach headset and I did a test capture yesterday.

 

It captured everything perfectly including my friend who was chatting to me in game (XBOX Live party).

 

But my voice was not captured. I know that my voice is an outgoing signal and so that is why it did not capture it.

 

So ...

 

Is is POSSIBLE at all to capture my voice aswell? (when talking into the headset mic) ... or will it only capture my friends voice?

 

 

Thanks,

Ice Cubez

Also, I might add that if I turned up the volume loud enough of my recorded gameplay ... I could hear my voice speaking. Thought it was VERY soft .... so it seems like it is possible ...

There is a running thread here somewhere about how to do this.

Take a look back maybe a page or 2 and you'll find it.

 

That method didnt really work for me. My PC Sound card was not available for selection in Roxios Audio capture device.

 

It managed to capture my voice recording with gameplay footage (but no gameplay sound at all, just my voice)

 

Im using a turtle beach x12 headset and im just trying to figure out how to record my voice (it records other peoples voices fine, but my voice is an OUTGOING signal ... and so doesnt come out through the tv speakers like other players voices)

 

There is a pink cable that hangs loose on the turtle beach headset setup. I plugged the pink cable into my laptops 'microphone' port and managed to get my voice recording (though there was unacceptable static/weird noise while it was plugged in for some reason) on roxio ..... but no game sound ... just my voice and game footage ....

 

Anyone know how to record my voice (no static) with game sound?

There are ways to do this. If your turtle beach headset allows output (where your voice comes out through the TV's speaker). You'll be able to do it. Do a google search and/or change the settings on the 360. I believe there's an option where you can get your voice out of the TV's speaker vs headphones.

 

You can also get an extra mic and mess around with settings.

By changing the setting to "Voice through TV Speakers" ... it only allows me to capture the sound of other players voices. Not my own voice.

Roxio for some apparent reason does not allow for you to record your own voice. The only way is to record your voice and sync it to your partys voice during editing. This will not change until Roxio updates there software.

 

Edit: There is a current running thread tutorial on this, but this is not on a turtle beach headset, its on a Astro headset. Reason you get static feedback is because of your model of turle beaches. Its not designed to be conected to your consol and computer at the same time.

Yep, your right.

 

I now use the audacity program to record my voice (turtle beach pink cord plugged into my laptop mic port)

 

It records unbearable static and hissing aswell, but audacity has awesome features that enable you to remove it completley (noise removal function)

 

The only pain, like you said .. is synching it with the video. Whatever, as much as a pain it may be ... at least it can be done.

Any headset that has a PC mic jack can work if you invest in a mixer...plus if your current headset ever needs replaced then there's way more options.

 

Just plug the headset PC mic jack into your PC/Laptop mic input, output the mic thru speakers (don't forget to mute the actual speakers) then plug the PC sound output to the mixer using the 3.5mm-1/4" adapter. Volume controls for the game sound/party chat and your voice can all be adjusted before it reaches the Roxio. Your mic quality will really depend on the headset and the soundcard when using this option.

Audio Mixer: Behringer XENYX502 5-Channel Mixer

Extra Equipment: Hosa GPM-103 3.5mm TRS to 1/4" TRS Adapter

 

That's helpful. I might need this for my laptop since I don't have a mixer.
